'''''Notfinity Process: Matter-in-Motion''''' is the second edition of [[George Staniforth Coyne|George S. Coyne]]'s book, published by the [[John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society]] on 15 June 2021 (408 pages). The first edition appeared in 2017 as ''[[Notfinity Process: Microcosms-in-Motion]]''. | |||
==The title== | |||
'''Notfinity''' is Coyne's proposed replacement for "infinity", on the grounds that infinity cannot be conceptualised while its negation can: ''notfinity'' is '''negated finity''', the denial that the universe has a boundary, a beginning, a smallest constituent or a largest container. Nothing positive need be imagined; one need only decline to impose a limit. '''Microcosms''' are all things and portions of the cosmos, and '''process''' is microcosms in motion — both terms taken from [[Univironmental determinism|univironmental determinism]]. The resulting worldview is univironmental and deterministic, drawing on classical mechanics and systems philosophy. | |||

Notfinity Process: Matter-in-Motion is the second edition of George S. Coyne's book, published by the John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society on 15 June 2021 (408 pages). The first edition appeared in 2017 as Notfinity Process: Microcosms-in-Motion.
The title
Notfinity is Coyne's proposed replacement for "infinity", on the grounds that infinity cannot be conceptualised while its negation can: notfinity is negated finity, the denial that the universe has a boundary, a beginning, a smallest constituent or a largest container. Nothing positive need be imagined; one need only decline to impose a limit. Microcosms are all things and portions of the cosmos, and process is microcosms in motion — both terms taken from univironmental determinism. The resulting worldview is univironmental and deterministic, drawing on classical mechanics and systems philosophy.
Contents
Notfinity Process reveals some errors in Einstein's relativity and many absurdities in the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. it includes new explanations for quantum entanglement and the 2-slit experiment. The chapter on Understanding Consciousness clarifies the relationship between the brain and consciousness and dispenses with the so-called hard problem by asserting that it is not genuine.
Coyne discusses ideas in theoretical orthodox physics that have logical problems such as matterless motion; wave-particle duality; light waves in a void, negative mass; the duality of light; superposition and probability waves; cosmological expansion; inflation; Schrödinger's cat; and the cosmos needing an observer to exist.
He discusses what he regards as invalidating problems in relativity, including the objectification of motion, violations of scientific assumptions and mathematical errors, and argues that the Big Bang has invalidating problems of its own.
Coyne describes Borchardt's Infinite Universe Theory and Universal Cycle Theory, and the Neomechanical Gravitation Theory developed by Borchardt with Stephen J Puetz. He examines Bryant's Modern Mechanics, Shaw's entanglement explanation, and an aether gravity model.
In a chapter on Bohmian mechanics, Coyne discusses causality and chance, pilot waves and the undivided universe. Included are letters from the Bohmian physicists Dr. Basil Hiley, winner of the 2012 Majorana Prize, and Dr. F. David Peat, reproduced with permission. See David Bohm.
Other topics include a rational explanation for the double-slit experiment; Maxwell’s aether, energy, dark matter candidates, and the cosmological principle; alternatives to the galactic redshift interpretation, cosmological expansion, and inflation myths, as well as the emptiness myth.
Coyne posits that consciousness is an abstraction for cognitive processes, and accounts for the hard problem of subjective experience. He contends that microcosms in motion generate perceptions, which the brain interprets uniquely based on the mind’s neuronal patterns.
Coyne explains the differences between awareness and consciousness, the cause of dualistic confusion, and describes the Global Workplace Theory. He lists many questions about consciousness and the brain and provides logical answers.
Coyne discusses the illusion of the observer, the concept of self-awareness, Antonio Damasio's model, and the negative implications of “free will” from brain studies.
Other areas concerning consciousness abstraction include the evolutionary benefit of advanced mental processes, a summary of neuroscience discoveries, and higher–order thought theory.
More topics included in Notfinity Process are Modern Mechanics, the Infinite Universe Theory, the Universal Cycle Theory, rational solutions of entanglement and the 2-slit experiment, an aether gravity model, and consciousness is an abstraction for brain functions.
Notfinity Process was originally published in September 2017. The second edition was released on 15 June 2021 by the John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society.
